I WOKE up Sunday morning to four grown men arguing about whether the Premier League has a fixture congestion problem. This argument then spilled over to Twitter and has finally spilled over to the pages of the Morning Star.
It is amusing that while they felt the fixtures were indeed congested, they wouldn’t change too much and even suggested having a match on Christmas Day.
The calls for a winter break to ease the problem on teams in England go back nearly a decade.
